Well I have decided to get into the Centauri fleet.  The other person at my store who also into Babylon 5 is going Narn, so the battles should be decent.

Any advice on the Centauri fleet would be nice.

Also, on painting, is it gold or yellow with the Centauri Fleet?  I got the purple part figured out, I think. ( I do not have a great eye for this kinda of thing.)

Gold, I believe, They're Centauri, so they tend to be kind of a mix of the decadent late Roman Empire and Colonial-era France. Very baroque, with a great deal of ship space devoted to the crew's comfort, etc.

www.b5tech.com has some good pics of Centauri ships

Most Centauri ships have their firepower to the front. That's where you need to concentrate your targets. As long as your targets are in your forward arc you're fine. Luckily some of the Centauri ships have pretty high maneuverbility to keep their enemy in the right facing.
Centauri weapons are also quite effective having either twin-linked or AP and Double Damage.

I'm just looking at it from the sideline here. Nobody around town plays ACTA so I'm stuck just reading the Mongoose boards...
